Just returned from the hospital.

Short visit today because I have to prepare for the Sabbath tonight.

Fay was released from the bone unit today and was transferred to the rehab unit. When I got there they already had her up and walking with a walker. She walked a distance of 25 feet on her first attempt. This rehab unit at Horton Hospital is really state of the art. The therapy is just as intense as it would be at better known institutions such as Burke & Helen Hayes. The therapists and nurses really go out of there way to be patient friendly. They keep the patients motivated with a positive attitude with the motto being "I can do it" rather than "it is too difficult". To further keep the patients motivated there are former patients (many of them recovered stroke victims), who act as unpaid volunteers that back up the staff.
Their message is "We are living proof that hard work and perseverance pays off." If we did it so can you".

She no longer needs the Toridol. All she is taking to control pain is 2 regular strength Tylenol.

I will not be visiting tomorrow because I can not travel of the Sabbath.

My next visit will be all day on Sunday and I will post my next report as soon as I return Sunday night.
